EM2 Standard General Purpose Meadow Mixture
General purpose mixtures EM1, EM2 and EM3 offer the best combination of colour, reliability and cost for general landscaping.  EM2 contains a good selection of the core components of a traditional meadow and is good for seeding across a range of soil types.  The grass specified with this mixture (EG1) is a simple mixture of low growing grasses that gives a good open "flower-friendly" sward.  This grass mixture used alone has many applications in low maintenance naturalistic landscaping.
